Is there an easy way to deploy this to my own infrastructure, possibly via k8s or docker containers - no aws?
Hey dylz - not yet. Historically Snowplow has been engineered in a way that is idiomatic to each host cloud - in other words, it runs using the AWS / GCP services that a data platform team would use if they were building a behavioral data pipeline from scratch on that cloud.
This said, we are steadily working to refactor all our components to be more generic, and already we run a lot of the Snowplow components on k8s for our customers.

With this background, I am delighted to be able to Show HN our new Try Snowplow experience. Under lockdown last year, the team decided to go back to basics and build a new version of Snowplow called Try Snowplow; that version is now in GA.
Try Snowplow is a small version of the Snowplow technology that can be setup quickly and easily - normally under 15 mins. Like all versions of Snowplow, it runs in your own cloud environment.
